Is he left footed, if not I file it alongside most of your "5pm announcement" posts ;)

Yeah, I saw that. We need a 2nd LCB first
Do we ? Binks hasn't played.yet because Lati has been good in that role and if needed then Bidwell can cover
He's another very highly rated player and we would be foolish not to sign him

yeah, we do

It's why we are looking at Kitching

Lati can play there but it's also best to have a left footed player at LCB as the passing lanes are better and much easier.

I totally agree but if we are being priced out of the Kitching deal then signing another young highly rated defender makes sense surely ?

no, there are other left footed cb's out there and we are well stocked with right footed cb's

Don’t know much about Holmes but if he is better than what we have, gettable & affordable, why not.

Thomas and Lats can play RCB…. I’d only add to that position if it was a potential future star, not just another squad player.

we still need LCB, Attacker, 2 x CM before any other positions ….

Maybe Holmes is considered as a central of a 3 l. Gives us time to find a permanent lcb while binks is here

He’s only just over 6ft … I prefer the central defender to be taller and potentially dominant in the air …. That said you could see Thomas transition to that role.
